  1. There is a blank space next to the color palette, so the palette isn’t showing as many colors as it could. The palette isn’t taking up all the space to the edge of the screen (see the screenshot).
    The size of the blank space seems to depend on how many tools you have on your toolbar but it is present even without editing the default tool order.
    I tried reinstalling the app - it was fixed for about a day and then the issue appeared again.
    I’m facing this issue on my 11” iPad Pro 2022, but also have seen…

  3. Can the edit feature for the elements have the same mechanics as when we move notepads/files?

    Currently we get a teeny-tiny screen, and have to drag stickers individually, and click "done". This makes it really frustrating and time consuming to organize stickers, which sometimes get all jumbled on download.

    It would be better to a) be able to select multiple elements and b) drag them to other collections if we want, c) on a larger or full-sized window, and d) to not have all the work undone when we click out of that window. Basically the same mechanics as the…

  4. How can Goodnotes be integrated into the workflow of large enterprises, especially in project management and collaboration between teams? Is it possible to develop a feature that allows real-time progress tracking and document sharing, while ensuring high security and the ability to customize to the needs of each department in the enterprise?

  6. I LOVE this app. I use it daily and for so many things! It’s versatile, convenient, affordable, all the good things. One problem: I did the one-time purchase in 2023. Now, in 2025, I’d love to switch to the annual subscription so that I can access it on my PC as my projects have expanded. And I can’t. I’d have to delete my account, lose all of my stuff, and then re-enroll. Or find a way to back up all of my stuff (as PDFs, losing hyperlinks and all of the Goodnotes-ey features on them), delete my account, and re-enroll.…

  7. I would love to be able to simply resize the chosen object by simply using lasso. Like in notability. Also a perfect feature is the colour or style editing. DEMO IN THE ATTACHED VIDEO

  9. I enabled text replacement in MacOS' keyboard settings to be able to to use λ and ₜ in my Flashcards by simply spelling "lmbd" for Lambda... Since it's not available on my keyboard.
    It works perfectly fine in Safari or pages etc. but not in Goodnotes.

  12. It would be nice if we can change linetype (dotted, dashed) and thickness after selecting line with lasso like we can change color.
    It would be so helpful because now if i want dotted or dashed line after i write or draw something i have to redraw it again. It would be nice to just select it with lasso and change line settings like you want

  13. i use text boxes for my planner, because i don’t particularly like my handwriting. i use the scribble function with my apple pencil, but when it converts my writing to text, it automatically capitalizes the first letter. i have this feature turned off in my settings, and i wish it transferred over into the app. i just feel like it looks more natural that way!

  14. What I take notes for I would like to listen to the recording multiple times to learn. To have a loop feature would be great to be able to loop the whole recording to play over and over, or ideally to choose to loop the whole recording or each piece individually for notes with multiple recordings.

  15. You can not delete the duplication until restart of the app. Then the old picture/text etc. disappears and only appears at the intended place. It‘s really annoying. Also if you zoom in to write sometimes parts of the strokes or dots disappear. You have to either overwrite it to fix it or erase/undo and write again.

  16. I heard that GoodNotes 6 allows collaborative editing of PDFs. After sharing a single PDF with each other, is it possible for both parties to write on the PDF in real-time?

  17. Under the settings tab, add the ability to customize your initial screen.
    Examples:
    Open to a specific document upon start of app. That way if it a diary, journal, calendar, ect. It's ready to use right away.
    Allow different ways to view documents in the start-up tab. List of projects, small projects icons, large icons, view side by side, ect.
    Ability to lock documents and unlock with password, passcode, fingerprint, ect.

  18. Imported templates often have the problem that they are much smaller than the given document which makes it weird looking and also very unpractical to write as you have to adjust the size of the window continuously. GoodNotes’ own templates do have the option (or an automatic system) to adjust the size but with own templates this unfortunately does not work yet.
    I would appreciate if it would be possible to add the option to adjust the size of an imported template :))

  20. To take better notes, consider viewing multiple pages simultaneously by collapsing text between two points, similar to the functionality in Liquid Text. This allows for a clear overview of related content while minimizing distractions and maximizing productivity.
